After many months of tireless preparation, it is invigorating to be able to say that our #S17 anniversary weekend is finally here!

The http://s17nyc.org/ website will contain all of the who’s, what’s where’s, why’s and
when’s; text @S17NYC to 23559 for real time updates, and below we did our best to organize and synthesize the litany of actions and events that are in store.

Indeed, Wall Street is our common villain who is robbing the 99% blind on behalf of the 1%. This weekend we will mark the occasion of our anniversary by once again showing the powers that be that we see what they are doing, and that soon enough the whole world will again as well.

You can also Donate to Support S17: The Action Resource Fund helps Occupy Wall Street working and affinity groups get the resources they need to do the things they want on big days of action. Please donate if you can!

The People’s Wall
Monday, 7am
The streets surrounding the New York Stock Exchange
As part of the morning of actions, people from all walks of life are going to assemble in the streets surrounding the New York Stock Exchange in a historic act of nonviolent civil disobedience. We will form a peaceful sitting wall to deliver a clear message: The 99% will no longer stand for business as usual. In building this blockade, we will — symbolically and literally — open space for the 99 Revolutions to emerge, and set the stage for the Storm Wall Street convergence. These actions work together, as essential parts of a greater whole.

99 Revolutions
Monday, 7am
Intersections throughout the Financial District
Problem: All Roads lead to Wall Street. Solution: Reverse the Flow of Traffic. The 99 Revolutions will disrupt traffic throughout the Financial District by creating a swirl of roving intersection occupations surrounding the Stock Exchange. Each occupation will enact a World Without Wall Street as envisioned by members of the 99%.

Storm Wall Street
Monday, 10am
In front of the doors of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, at Bowling Green
At the site from which Occupy Wall Street first arose, we are calling for an end to the corporate occupation of the planet and demonstrating that a just and sustainable world is possible. As the 99% circle New York’s first public park, our groundswell will remind the 1% of their growing debts to Mother Earth and that the Commons belong to us all.

Affinity Group Assembly Points:
An affinity group is a small group of people (typically 5-15), who trust one another and organize around a shared political or tactical goal.

occupy faith, catholics and all christians are here among us to destroy our community! the romans crucified jesus, invented christianity and made the jews the first FALSE FLAG blaming them for crucifying jesus and starting antisemitism! the muslims became the second FALSE FLAG with the crusades and the homosexual relationship between king richard and saladin! now we have bush and bin laden as friends, the 911 FALSE FLAG again blaming the muslims. putting an image of a MAN NAILED TO A CROSS into our minds is intended to frighten us and our children into submission to their tyranny! telling us and our children that our fellow man is evil and their mothers are sinners is used to break up the tribes for colonization and to GROOM our children. all christians do NOT treat us as equals! they look down on us as sinnners! they are here to break up our community and "save" us by recruiting us for their "community"! we must protect our community from these predatory crucifixion merchant money sharks! they support the police and the prohibition of marijuana! marijuana is the tree of life of revelations and the plant of renown of ezekiel 34 v29 which predicts the end of its prohibition.
